Boekenhoutskloof Chocolate Block 2024

Boekenhoutskloof The Chocolate Block 2024

• Region: South Africa
• Sub-Region: Swartland / Franschhoek

Vineyard A legendary blend crafted primarily from dryland Syrah vines grown on iron-rich schist and granite soils of the Swartland, blended with Grenache, Cinsault, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Viognier.

Wine Rich, aromatic, and notoriously seamless. Inviting notes of dark maraschino cherry, ripe plum, crushed black pepper, dark chocolate, and cardamom spice. The palate is opulently textured with broad, velvety tannins, juicy black fruit depth, and an intriguing savory spice finish that lingers effortlessly.

Food Pairings
